| Sumario: | <p id="p1">Makerspace communities enhance STEM literacy while valuing assimilation of Hispanic and Indigenous culture, language, traditions, and ways of knowing that connect the purpose of STEM disciplines to real world uses by honoring past funds of knowledge. This study investigates the La Frontera mobile makerspace program’s impact on educators’ self-efficacy toward integrating technology and culturally responsive teaching using pop-up activities. Early outcomes indicate increased interest of emerging technologies and understanding of culturally responsive teaching. The program includes strong community partnerships connecting K12 schools, community college, university, museums, and industry to an isolated area spanning a vast region along the Texas-Mexico border.</p> |
